Product Description

The MR Collection represents some of the earliest steel furniture designs by Mies van der Rohe. The material choice was inspired by fellow Bauhaus master Marcel Breuer, while the forms are thought to be modern derivatives of 19th century iron rocking chairs. Unrivalled in their imagination, Knoll have taken inspiration from these traditional pieces and created the MR collection, which, with their fluidity and modernity would make the ideal addition to the contemporary home.
